Contact USCIS to get information on expedite.

You may need to get a congressperson involved to help you. If your wife has visa already and is ready to enter the US, then certainly they can understand that baby cannot be left behind if both parents are going to be in the US.

Of course you need to submit I-130 first before an expedite can occur.

 

Yeah thats what I am going to do.

I am a U.S. citizen and if I were a permanent resident it would at least take maximum 9 to 10 months. It dont take 5 years.

As I suggested in another thread, you should contact the consular section at the embassy in Islamabad and request approval to file the i-130 at the embassy. They will contact USCIS to process the request.

They cannot give you an instant answer.  They have to send your request to USCIS regional office in New Delhi for their decision.  It doesn't happen on-the-spot.

So I should wait for an answer?

so we have ruled out the possibility of your child inheriting your citizenship?

Does not qualify

One thing i do not understand, OP is a NATURALIZED US Citizen - which usually came from 2 pathways, filing after 5 years  being LPR, or 3 years (if married to a USC), and OP doesnt seem to be married to USC. 

If my assumption is correct, he has spent 5 years in the USA before being a USC, and from INA act, it seemed like his child would also be a USC automatically (unless of course i understood the act incorrectly )

Or could it be because he was naturalized AFTER the child was born? (so the act doesnt apply to the already born child).

Yes, he was born after I became a citizen.

He was not a US citizen when the baby was born.

You should give it a little time for a reply, yes.  When did you send the request to the Embassy?
